You'd think so, but then you'd be wrong. The statists realize that their personal powers, and secret knowledge, far surpass that piece of parchment Constitution, which some unknown professor says is written in a language so archaic that nobody has understood it in the last 50 years.
We are fortunate to have the world's leading authority on home protection, and the second-smartest male in history to lecture us about the benefits of using a shotgun, assuming they permit us to own anything in the way of weaponry.
Uncle Joe first praised the double-barrel shotgun as more then we'll ever need, because bad guys surrender when you fire that first shot into the air from the back porch. But then he also said that the bad guys would surrender just at the sound of a pump action chambering a round. What's the better form of wisdom, considering they both came from Mr. Shotgun himself?
The best I could come up with was a form of bipartisanship. A single-barrel 12ga shotgun with two tubular magazines:
Aside from a few mods I made to the Kel-Tec KMG for my own comfort and preferences, the shotgun itself is set up to handle six 3" shells in both magazine tubes, with a lever to change from one "tank" to the other. I have great expectations of using the Mexican "shorty" shells also. This should give a total capacity of about 25 rounds, with one in the chamber, although if kept empty, I always have that magical "chunk, chunk" sound of chambering that first round.
Thank you for being so frank about so serious subject, Mr. Biden. I just don't know what I would have done without it, except go with something more inappropriate, like my sub-MOA AR-10.
